My Apple aluminium Bluetooth keyboard isn't working. This is the first problem I've had with it since I bought it months ago.

The green light flashes twice intermittently - any suggestions on how to fix it? I've tried re-pairing it, but it isn't seen by the Mac.

Update: I also tried a search for my phone, the Mac doesn't seem to find it either. Maybe it's a problem with my Mac's bluetooth?

The flashing indicates your keyboard is discoverable.
Did you try replacing the batteries? Make sure they're installed in the right position? Try re-pairing?

It was working yesterday, and the battery was at least halfway full. I have tried re-pairing and get this:

It could be a faulty bluetooth module in the Mac. Try pairing another device or taking the mac and keyboard to the store.
 
It seems to be working again, after shutting my Mac down overnight.

Thanks for all the help.
